Can we all agree on one thing?

Leave Nick Breckon to write season 3.

Breckon ONLY AND NO ONE ELSE!

    YES!

  • Hell Yeah! Do you know if he wrote most of season 1

  • He wasn't part of the team during season one, joined for 400 days.

  • Yep, as soon as I saw Nick Breckon at the start of the Episode I knew I was gonna love it.

  • The writing in this episode certainly felt less heartless...

  • He thinks his mare's gone lame.

  • I agree 100%. The first two and the finale were great. 3 and 4... not so much. So happy with this episode.

    breckon did some questionable things at the start of the season, but he did better than i expected in the finale, let's see how he does on season 3.

  • All That Remains was great? The second best episode this season and the fourth best of all, IMO.

  • Could you explain the questionable things that he did (not trying to sound rude, I'm genuinely interested)?

  • I'm disappointed by the illogical opening scene, the lack of resolution on why Arvo went to the observation deck in the first place, Christa's MIA status, and the questionable use of time-skips in the final scenes.

  • Not everyone you loose turns up again, you know. Especially in a Zombie Apocalypse.
    The opening scene was a little bit disappointing, but it didn't bother me. Felt like it was originally part of amid the ruins.

    The episode was good, i'm sayin that some of the things he did were bad received by the forum when that episode came out.
    some examples are: omid's death, carlos being a shitty doctor who don't know how a dog bite is,characters acting inconsistent in ep2, the shitbird line that a lot of people said that destroyed kenny's sacrifice for ben, and the wind turbine fiasco. i remember a lot of people were unhappy with him at that time.

  • Different writers. I think that's best possible explanation of the illogical scene.

    I was expecting at least one fatality from the group.

  • Omid's death was the perfect way to jump back into TWD imo. Carlos was a shitty doctor, that was a weak point, but it gave the fans a great running gag.
    Characters acting inconsistent? Only Rebecca, if you ask me. Wind Turbine Fiasco? You talking about the riddle? Cause then, I've only got one answer for you: Train map.

  • Yeah - I'm pleasantly surprised that Bonnie and Mike survived, but it would have made more sense for them (or Luke and Kenny) to be either instantly killed or severely wounded in the crossfire.

    I'm going to believe that Telltale has plans for Christa in the future, hence why Nick was unable to do anything with her in the Season finale.

  • i'm talking about when carlos and nick had no idea how to shut down the wind turbine in a house divided, and they let clementine do it.
    Carlos acted inconsistent too, he said that he don't trust clementine around sarah at the end of ATR, and in the beginning of the next episode he suddenly "needs" clementine to look after sarah.

  • Nick breckon did better than ep3&4 writers combined, tho.

  • Me too :) the sad thing is how poor nick and sarah's death were handled. (and carver was kinda a wasted villain in IHW) people sometimes bashed the episodes because they want telltale to do better. it's ok if you don't like something they did.

  • Agree. Nick's death felt really lazy.
    And I agree as well, the episodes could've been a little better, especially in Harm's Way had much more potential. Then again, in Harm's Way had such a brillant ending that it's hard for me not to love the episode.

    YES!!

    Please do not let other writers ruin a season!! The guys who wrote episode 3 and episode 4 especially were terrible!!

  • Better writers might exist, but yes Nick nailed this one, and him sticking to the writing, him ALONE, would be great, because it is very difficult for multiple to work together on something like this and have it turn out coherent, consistent, and most of all, of equal quality. Maybe working together may work, but I don't trust it after EP3 and EP4.

  • A House Divided was MUCH better than all that remains IMO. I think All That Remains was one of the worst to be honest.

  • YES Nick Breckon ALL THE WAY. Episode 3 and 4 almost ruined this season.

    Credit where it's due: Pierre Shorette was co-lead writer on the season finale. I won't say which bits each one handled, but they BOTH nailed it!

  • Whatever setup was used for this episode, do it again.

  • Nick Breckon breaks your heart and beats you over the head with a bag of FEELS with his incredible writing. And I both love him and hate him for it (IN A GOOD WAY!!!)

  • If every episode of the season was like this one, it could have rivaled season 1.

    Keep it up for season 3, Telltale. You have me again.

  • I'd be OK with it if Luke didn't die so dumb, Mike and Bonnie didn't SUDDENLY side with a fucker that ALMOST HAD 'EM KILLED, Jane didn't PURPOSEFULLY PROVOKE Kenny, and us not having an option to solve it amiably.

    Aside from all that shit I'd be OK with whoever did S3.

  • The whole Arvo situation was not that well-written I agree.

  • Personally Lukes death was one of my favorites of the entire series. It was so unexpected and very, very sad seeing him drown right in front of your eyes.
